Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Hello All
Gisella Gruber:Welcome Dev
Roberto:In the BCEC we had only one member that was not active, the problem arose only in the case that the other member from the same region could not attend. Luckily it never happened.
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:can we have scroll control on the doc?
Gisella Gruber:@ Cheryl - you can scroll
Gisella Gruber:Welcome Jordi
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:thx

Cheryl Langdon-Orr:In OUR biased veiw of course
Gisella Gruber:Murray has joined the call
Murray McKercher (in Toronto):sorry I am late
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:EXACTLY that is an ESSENTIAL point
Cheryl Langdon-Orr: our new text catches that
Alan Greenberg:Yes, we did consult, and had MUCH discussion in the group at that time.
Murray McKercher (in Toronto):Excuse me if this is a question from apoint of ignorance, however, are there not rules that this group could adopt from another governance group in ICANN, or os this indeed a "new" process?
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:We aussies are not the onlkky oines to use this but TRANSARANCY is lso key then
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:sorry about the typos
Andrew Mack:Predictability is a good thing
Andrew Mack:Question: what about people who ask not to name a second choice?
Alan Greenberg:NOTE it is not just what Cheryl and I are proposing. It is whet the At-Large group that established the process decided upon.
Alan Greenberg:If we are going to reopen the issue, we are going to have to go to At-Large again. Do we really wantto revisit that?????
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:INdeed Alan
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:and Hel no to the reopening issue
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:Yes thus our use of references like Wikipaedia in our document that is as close to plain language as you cxan get ion these things
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Alan's and Cheryl's recommendations appear appropriate. Also, Andrew's suggestion of making this easy to understand for At-Large is crucial. It may be some infographics are needed to illustrate the concept.
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:agree these days infographics are around and VERY useful
Gisella Gruber:Maureen has lost internet connection but still on the phone bridge
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:NO Tijiani IF change is desired on THIS one exercise it is up to all of At-Large (or even wider community to discuss and decide NOT the ALAC
Gisella Gruber:Siranush has joined the call - welcome
Gisella Gruber:And Heidi has joined the call
Siranush Vardanyan:sorry for late arrival, just back from US Embassy
Andrew Mack:team, I unfortunately need to leave in 5 minutes. are there any other issues on which we want the team to weigh in on that I can contribute, or are we sticking with the election issue for the rest of the call?
Siranush Vardanyan:with received visa:)
Roberto:Good, Siranush!
Cheryl Langdon-Orr:excellent Siranush
Siranush Vardanyan:thanks, Roberto and Cheryl
Andrew Mack:need to go team. good luck with the rest of the call...
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:take care, Andrew
Fatimata:Bye Andrew
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Re-reading the suggestions for RoP, perhaps what could make it easier to understand, would be to reorder in sequence of the number of candidates remaining
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:So 19..11.2 is the situation for one candidate, then the next rule deals with two candidates, then the next rule deals with 3 candidates
Murray McKercher (in Toronto):I must leave the call for another in 5 minutes, but will review the transcript and associated documents
Maureen Hilyard:Hi all been offline because of local outage, but agree with the conversation which I have been following on the phone bridge about the process having clear guidelines, is consistent and as Olivier said is "as painless as possible" :)
Jordi Iparraguirre:some are corner cases. as far as voting procedures are public , procedire committee can decide in cases not cleared by rules
Heidi Ullrich:Could there be text that the process starts after the first meeting but no later than the second meeting?
Jordi Iparraguirre:better say a month, not a meeting
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:A challenge for a conferenece call with candidates is while desirable, is the timing of the call if there are more than 3 candidates on the Final Candidate list.
Roberto:I will email the team and explain the cases in which we had confidentiality problems
Fatimata:I agree with Roberto about the importance of the 360 evaluation. It can help a lot during the selection process of a candidate who is asking for re-selection
Jordi Iparraguirre:agree
Roberto:@Alan: I have heard that as well, but I still believe that we have to build our procedures being independent from what the Board will decide to do in the future
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:;-) Perhaps the tech used for nomcom for processing applications could be used instead of the wiki (assuming the methodology of the Nomcom works well)
Heidi Ullrich:Have a good holiday, Alan!
Heidi Ullrich:Bye, All
Roberto:Bye all
Jordi Iparraguirre:great work, thanks!
Fatimata:Thank you Tijani and all
Fatimata:Bye
Siranush Vardanyan:thank you all and bye
Maureen Hilyard:thanks Tijani, Cheryl and Alan...
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Thanks to everyone
Maureen Hilyard:Bye all
Dev Anand Teelucksingh:Take care all
